Thank you very much for your reply.  That looks like it could solve my
problem.  I guess I'd have to code the input fields by hand (i.e. using
<INPUT ...> instead of a taglib tag), but that's not at all a problem. 
However, I've never before seen or used those tags that begin with c:. 
After a little googling, I discovered they're part of Struts EL.  I know I'm
not currently using that, and it's not at all clear how to begin using it. 
I found a wiki page at http://wiki.wsmoak.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?StrutsAndJSTL
that just made me more confused;  I guess there's some kind of strange
heirarchy between all these different version numbers that I'm not seeing. 
As a sidenote, I've found all the (limited) struts documentation and example
websites to be very hard to follow.  It seems like much of the struts
documentation is out of date or doesn't convey any useful information (or
worse, it's just plain wrong).  Anyways, back on subject, I'm not sure which
version of struts I have - I'm not in charge of server configuration.  I
couldn't find an easy way to find out what my version is, so I looked inside
the struts.jar file in tomcat and I found files with a number of version
numbers, the highest being 2.3, which leads me to believe I'm using struts
2.3.  So if I'm reading that wiki correctly, now I have to make some kind of
decision between Struts-EL and JSTL?  Aren't all these tags Struts-EL? 
Maybe the apache docs were lying to me when they said the "c" taglib was
Struts-EL.  Please help me straighten out this confusion.  Also, I assume
the syntax ${variable} is another Struts-EL or c taglib thing... I've also
never used that, but I recall seeing it on some doc page eons ago...

Thank you very much for all your help,
Ryan
